ABSTRACT

Identifying environmental awareness is essential for researchers to make detailed plans related to environmental education suitable for students' conditions. This study aimed to identify environmental awareness among elementary school students in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. This research uses a survey technique in collecting data. In general, students have good environmental awareness, as evidenced by most of their statements that they often and always carry out environmentally sustainable activities. However, several things need to be underlined because students still often do this, such as using excessive paper, throwing used batteries directly to the right place without being sorted first, and the habit of using plastic bags.
